Title: Word Origins
Post by: ctan on March 24, 2011, 07:31:56 AM
San kaya galing ang mga expressions or terms nating mga Pinoy? Yung mga slang or colloquial words na gamit natin, ano kaya etymology nun?

Example:
- hanep
- chorva
- etc

May alam ako sa ibang words, like:
- apir! - mula sa "up here" yun. Sasabihin muna, "give me five!" (Meaning, five fingers) so ihahampas mo yung palad mo sa palad ng nagsabi. Tapos follow-up niya yung "up here!".
